The Food and Beverage takeaway process is handled within the FAB Host panel in the POS:
- It is an #OFFLINE panel specifically structured around the FAB delivery and takeaway process.
- It belongs to an interface profile that has POS startup controller #FAB-TAKEOUT-PANEL.
- It displays a list of the restaurant's FAB orders (paid or un-paid) that are created either within the POS terminals with interface profiles with the controller #FAB-TAKEOUT-PANEL, or are sent through eCommerce.
- From here you can create new FAB orders and enter the customer's details and pickup time.
- From here you take payment for FAB orders, finalize orders when the customer comes to pick them up, or mark them as a no-show.
You can filter the FAB order list by order status:
| Order Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Paid: | Shows orders that have been paid and not finalized. |
| Unpaid | Shows orders that are unpaid. |
| Finalized: | Shows finalized orders. |
| No-Show: | Shows orders that have been marked as no-show. |
You can also filter the order list by:
- Sales type
- Pre-orders
Note: You can also open the Fab Host from the function menu of the POS layout of another hospitality type:
- Create a button with the POS command SHOW_TAKEOUT_PANEL and the #FAB-HOST panel as parameter.
- You can also specify a specific sales type with this command, so that when you open the panel, the sales type filter is already set to this sales type.
- You need to copy the POS panel #FAB HOST (use the Copy POS Panel with Controls from the POS Panel Card) to the appropriate interface profile used by the POS terminal(s) that show this hospitality type.
